My Bad Boy's Secret: A Bad Boy Billionaire Romance (39 page)

              I could hear Jake moving, but I didn’t think much of it. When I returned to cuddle with him on the bed, though, I saw him standing, preparing to turn to me.

              For a moment, I was confused. What was his goal? My eyes then fell to the object in his hands. It was a square little sapphire-blue velvet box.

              My mind suddenly shifted gears, and images began moving at a speed so fast that my vision went blurry. It registered in my brain what was about to happen, but it was so wonderful that I was getting lightheaded.

              Jake was still smiling contentedly. He bent his left knee down and faced me, staring up my legs and chest to my face, which must have been frozen in amazement and delight.

              “Addy,” he began quietly but firmly, “I’ve wanted to do this for years, but I never felt it was the right time. First, we were just getting to know each other. It’s crazy to say this now, but I used to think of you as just another woman. I thought I’d leave you in a few weeks. But now we’ve been together for years. We’ve been so busy for such a long time, so I put off doing this. But now, I can’t wait any longer. I know you must be thinking the same thing.

              “You’re special, Addy. I knew you were the most beautiful woman the instant I first saw you, but you showed me that you’re so much more than that. I wouldn’t have achieved this much without you by my side. Before I met you, I moved from woman to woman, seeking that special someone to spark up my life. You’re that someone. I never thought it would be possible for a woman to be as intelligent, strong, and loving as you are. I never want to be apart from you ever as long as I live. I want to experience everything with you and face life’s challenges together. I know that whatever we encounter, we’ll get through it. I always thought I’d have to be single, but you’ve proven me wrong. You complete me, and I complete you. McKenna Addison, will you marry me?”

              By now, I was astonishing myself by how much I was gushing. Anyone who met me could attest that I was the least sentimental woman on Earth. Unlike most women, I could always control myself, and I was never a crier. Life taught me that tears were pointless. But now, I had no willpower left to hold my composure. Tears were streaming down my face and washing away my makeup. My hands were to my mouth, and I already gave up trying to rein in my emotions. I always expected that this day might come one day. It even crossed my mind as I was having sex with Jake. Even so, the proposal blew me away. I found it hard to still stand. I gave up and collapsed into Jake, hugging and kissing me furiously.

              “Yes, oh yes, yes I’ll marry you Jake!” I burst out screaming with so much ecstasy that the feeling actually physically hurt. My heart was ready to break out of my ribcage and explode from all the joy. I clawed and kissed Jake, and he returned my gestures. I continued to blubber like I never had before. Jake was losing restraint as well, and we fell onto bed again, renewed with the energy for more sex. He didn’t even have time to open the box and present the ring to me. If the ring fell into the bottom of the ocean, I wouldn’t have cared. We could always buy a new ring. We couldn’t recapture the emotions coursing through us now.

              This time, the sex we had was drastically different. It couldn’t be called sex or lovemaking. It was mating. We were already satisfied with exploring and moving slowly. Now, we drove at each other with as much speed and strength as we could muster. It was pure animalistic fucking. Jake kept his grip on my body harsh and heavy, pounding me in every orifice with lightning speed, and I responded with the same vigor. He fucked me from behind, used my breasts for pleasure, rocked my head to stimulate his cock, and spread me wide open to ravish my vagina and go as deep as he could into me. The sensations were electrifying to the point of being unbearable. Our bodies burned and beat together. I screamed and moaned liberally, letting out all of my emotions out and not giving a damn who heard me being fucked. The walls were designed to be soundproof and secure against potential spies, but I still got a kick out of imagining people hearing and seeing us in such illicit pleasure. The rest of the world disappeared during those hours. Nothing mattered to me anymore besides the sex Jake and I were having. The only place that existed was the room and the only people in the world were us two.

              Jake’s proposal was one reason for the magnitude of our sex, but we both bore the same idea on our minds. At this point, we didn’t even need to talk to each other to have the same thought. Jake spent the most amount of time twisting us into ever more creative positions while penetrating my vagina. The contortions my body was making, in addition to the stimulation brought about by his fingers and cock playing with my womanhood, were making me scream and grunt louder than ever. He pumped every load he had up my cervix in the hopes that it would fertilize me. While I was on birth control, and I would have to remove my IUD eventually, none of that stopped Jake from at least trying. Considering his virility, I wouldn’t be surprised if after all this effort he actually impregnated me. I couldn’t wait for our first child.

              Somehow, we finally released so much energy that we were once again panting and recovering from our savage and lustful fucking. I lay prone on top of Jake’s rippling and firm chest, soaking in the manly scent of his sweat and cologne and playfully tugging at his nipples. We both were breathing and enjoying the atmosphere, happy to be doing nothing.

              “I made sure to tell you when we were alone,” Jake murmured, kissing the top of my head and combing his fingers through my disheveled blonde curls. “I’ll let the girls know in a few days. That is, if they haven’t already heard us having fun.”

              That comment shattered the dream I was currently in and brought me back to Earth. I now felt cold and dirty. I tightened my fingers and pinched Jake’s nipples, eliciting a minute squirm. “Don’t,” I warned very slowly and quietly. “You just had to ruin our moment by mentioning them, did you?” I rolled off him and lay down on my side of the bed, feeling the now-cold juices of our fucking on my skin.

              Jake tried to lull me back into the magical moment, putting his arms around me to spoon and kissing my neck down to my back. “I thought that after spending some time with them, you might at least be civil to them,” he muttered.

              “I’m already civil to them,” I snapped without looking back at him. “At least one of them, the Indian girl, I don’t despise. She actually has her uses, I admit.” I wrestled myself away from Jake’s heavy and protective arms, getting up to look him in the eye. “But what is your problem with them? They’re new, but you seem to have a soft spot for them. I’ve never seen you this excited about a new girl. They’re not bad-looking, but the way you treat them is just weird. It’s not like how you usually are. You actually kind of care about them. You’re interested in them. Don’t tell me you still want to have them follow us.” I was getting angrier with every second I spoke. I was almost gnashing my teeth when I finished.

              Jake put his hands on my shoulders and pulled my face closer to his, kissing me in an attempt to pacify me. “Addy, don’t be silly. I know you don’t like them living near us, but like you said, they’re useful to us, at least for now. Who knows, they could be dead tomorrow or next month. After all, we lead dangerous lives, and we never know what could happen next. Recent events have already made that point obvious. Having those two doing our work for us is insurance. Sending them out to the frontlines keeps us safe, and if they get caught or killed, we won’t. Understand?” He kissed my forehead and played with my hair, and I was forced to grin. I was incapable of being mad for very long when Jake calmed me down.

              With one single effort, Jake pulled my body to his again and held me tightly above him, stroking my hair and moving another hand down to enjoy handfuls of my ass. “You have to admit, they are quite pretty,” Jake chuckled, and I glowered at him sourly. “It’s nice to have them around for some variation. Don’t worry, sooner or later they’ll be gone, and it’ll be the two of us again. But we shouldn’t throw away such valuable assets so hastily just because they annoy us.”

              “I guess you’re right,” I sighed. “You always are. I trust your decision, even though I don’t like it. I’d be fine if you just kept Ada. I can at least tolerate her. She got me out of a very sticky situation in Cape Town, and I didn’t say this to her, but I was genuinely impressed. The girl can fight and think on her feet. She seems honest enough. You can keep her, but ditch the redhead.”

              Jake frowned. He lightly spanked me a  few times, making me yelp and giggle. “That may be so, but you say that only because you haven’t spent much time with Sabina. She’s a good girl. She’s smarter than she lets on. I was able to connect with some suppliers and acquire some new products I can sell for a very handsome profit. It’s a larger margin than most of the deals I’ve made.”

              “Something isn’t right,” I muttered. “It’s too good to be true.”

              “Maybe, maybe not. There’s time for us to find out. My point is that the drugs are legit and Sabina helped me with it. She’s done me a few favors as well, and she’s got a fast mind, which is more than I can say for most of the people I meet in this business. That’s why I won’t be getting rid of her soon. I’ll keep her for as long as she can make me money. You’ll just have to deal with seeing her freckled face every day.” He flipped me down so that I lay on the bed and he draped his enormous body over me, giving me that familiar feeling of safety and contentment.

              I decided that Jake was right, at least for now. I wasn’t happy with the situation, but I didn’t want to debate Jake any longer on a night like this. It was supposed to be a night of pure leisure, when for a short time work didn’t matter to us. I leaned up and put my lips to Jake’s, and our tongues dueled. Soon our hands were playing with each other as well.

              “Have you picked out a wedding date yet?” I asked Jake through kisses.

              “I thought I’d leave that to you, seeing as how much this matters, and you’ve been dreaming about it for ages,” Jake smiled sheepishly.

              I gave him a soft slap and tug on his left cheek. “Leaving it all to me? How gentlemanly of you. In that case, let’s make it soon, but not too soon. We’ll blaze through our objectives, and then prepare for the wedding. I want it to be an intimate occasion. Not too many guests, just people we know we can trust.”

              Jake gave me a sarcastic glance. “I thought that all went without saying. How large could our party be? I’m smart enough to be discreet about sending out invitations.”

              “And we haven’t even picked out a venue. If all else fails, we’ll just hold it here.”

              Jake shrugged. “As you wish. If it doesn’t take place on land, no laws will apply, and it may not be legally recognized by any country.”

              I couldn’t restrain myself raising my eyebrow and smirking at Jake. “You’re the last person I expected to care about that. You destroyed everything that links you to any country years before entering this life.”

              Jake smiled naughtily. “I know. I was being sarcastic.” He thrust his manhood into me and enveloped me in another manly embrace, pulling my hair and hooking an arm around my body to his. The action made me squeal into his mouth. “What about in six months? Will you be ready then?”

              It took me a while to disentangle myself from the lascivious position Jake put me in. He was raising my adrenaline, and I knew that in a minute, I would have no choice but to join him for more transcendent sex.

              “Yes,” I whispered. I spoke in a voice full of sincerity and desire. “In six months, I’ll be your wife.”

              He breathed deeply and savored the fragrance of my hair and flesh.

              “I’ll be your husband.”

              “We’ll have children, and live happily ever after.”

PART 3

Chapter 1 – Sabina

              I couldn’t believe that I had just woken up. I was still here on the
Addison,
the ship Jake and McKenna most often called home. More to the point, Ada and I were still alive. We were still on our mission. Six months, and we still hadn’t blown our cover. We were still managing to send our intel updates each month or even each week to the US government, and we weren’t caught yet.
